Mayweather vs Hopkins : The Boss

[boozeboxer]

Mayweather: World titles in 5 different weight classes, and undefeated with almost 40 fights. Still only 30 years old.

Hopkins: 2 and 2 in his last 4 fights. Beat Winky Wright similar to his victories over Trinidad and Delahoya, by fighting guys who are way outside their weight class. Don't forget that
Hopkins is now fighting at the weight class where he started his career. Jermain Taylor has a stronger claim to p4p status, imo.


1.) Floyd Mayweather Jr.

2.) Manny Pacquio

3.) Juan Manuel Marquez

4.) Jermain Taylor

5.) Bernard Hopkins

I'm with ya on this one...

How you all have Taylor ahead of Wright is a mystery..... When Wright in fact should have one his last fight against your number 5 p4p man.

It was ruled a draw (even though many had Taylor by a round or two) and Wright was p4p # 2 or 3 depending on who you ask AFTER that fight.

Wright went on to lose to Hopkins who wasn't even considered p4p top 5 by ANYBODY after Taylor beat him twice.

Because Hopkins beat Wright, he is now on the edge of the top 5 and Wright is not. Taylor beat Hopkins twice and had a draw with p4p #3 guy, then went on and beat Spinks (#1 jr. middleweight according to Ring Magazine) and Ouma (not a world beater, but a solid fighter)




Hope this helps...........

Okay. I didn't have Wright losing IMO to BHop or Taylor. So in my mind he has a very impressive resume with current or past p4p players.
